Crematogaster (Crematogaster) species F970 - Nigeria

WORKER. TL 3.58 mm, HL 0.79, HW 0.82, SL 0.64, PW 0.53 (Taylor, 1979: 27).
Eyes relatively large; alitrunk profile convex almost flat, mesonotum with a slight carina but metanotal groove hardly interrupting the profile; propodeal spines one-third down declivity, long. acute and upward pointing; no subpetiolar spine; lateral alitrunk and pedicel spiculate; pilosity and erect hairs sparse; colour dark brown-black.

In Nigeria I collected it once on okra (Hibiscus esculentus) plants in a garden - possibly this is Crematogaster (Cr.) ruspolii.
